Unsurpassed Master Guitarist Playlist

I have both that one and the recording Bhatt did with dobro wizard Jerry Douglas, Bourbon & Rosewater. Those Water Lily recordings feature both amazing musicianship and sound.

Yes, the Water Lily releases are excellent. I'm going to check out Bourbon & Rosewater. Thanks!

My mistake, it was Herbie Flowers.
Yes I know. No worries. I was hoping there was a bit of a cool story there.

Having only heard Voorman play bass, I'm wondering what guitar work of his you might have on your playlist.
He plays guitar on several other tracks on that album. I admit it was a reach, but there's no Unsurpassed Renaissance Man Who Also Plays Guitar Playlist thread. :)
 
Some great masters mentioned here so far, glad to see Leo Kottke get recognized. If you want to know why some people think he is America's greatest living acoustic guitarist, check out his live album: My Feet Are Smiling. During "Bean Time" you would swear there is more than one guitarist playing. HIs introduction to the "Crow River Waltz Medley", which entails Crow River Waltz, Jesu, Joy Of Man's Desiring (Bach) & Jack Fig" sums up his modus operandi: "I am going to take a lovely simple melody and drive it into the ground."

One name that was mentioned that really impressed me when I saw him live was Sonny Sharrock. I was not familiar with any of his music but was quickly taken with his awesome talent. Another was Leo Nocentelli of The Meters. That cat could play anything. He deserves greater recognition in the pantheon of N'Awlins greats.
 
If you like to know, Joe started a local band here in the 80 called
The Squares
This is the only recorded clips from a demo, The band broke up when he went on true with Mick Jagger

Thought it was a shame there wasn't any content from the band The Squares on youtube so I decided to bust out some vids out on Windows Movie Maker real quick.

Before starting his solo instrumental guitar career, Joe Satriani was in a Power Pop band called The Squares with current drummer Jeff Campatelli and bassist/vocalist Greg Kihn. Enjoy. (They are wrong about Greg Kihn)
